“The Range-R card is one of those things that I never expected would have taken off the way it did – over 800 sold thus far in three versions – and there’s no doubt in my mind that if people speak with their wallets, the people have spoken in volumes in this case.
When I saw it the first time it immediately reminded me of the old PSO Soviet scope rangefinders. Put the feet on the horizontal line and wherever the head comes up to, that’s the distance to the target. The Soviet methodology of fielding Snipers was quite a bit different from the American methodology. Rather than treating them as isolated assets they were viewed in what we’d come to call Designated Marksmen, or a native asset to the larger Infantry Squad. Extended range snap shots were more critical than mathematical ranging and pinpoint shot placement. Their training program was reflective of this, based around the experiences of the Eastern Front of WWII and Stalingrad in particular. With limited ammo and resources they created riflemen and their equipment was reflective of this effective methodology”
